The Star (North Star) mining district lies in the Star Range about 6 mi west of Milford in Beaver County. The original Star district was organized in 1870 and the adjoining North Star district followed the next year. The combined Star districtβs historical production is about 208,000 tons at an average recovered grade of about 14% Pb and 340 ppm Ag with byproduct Zn, Cu, Au, and minor W primarily from small skarn and carbonate replacement deposits. Total district metal production at modern metal prices is estimated at $106 million. District production was derived from numerous modest operations including the Harrington-Hickory, Wild Bill, Cedar-Talisman, Red Warrior, and Moscow mines (Heyl, 1963; Perry and McCarthy, 1977).
The Star district is part of the Wah WahβTushar mineral belt in the eastern Basin and Range Province. The Star Range is basically an east-dipping homocline of upper Paleozoic strata in the upper plate of the Blue Mountain thrust, which was intruded by a series of Tertiary stocks. The stocks belong to two distinctly different groups, older Oligocene (~30 Ma) quartz monzonite in the northeast, and younger Miocene (~21 Ma) granite in the southwest (Best and others, 1989).
The Oligocene mineralization includes the Harrington section in the northeast, Shenandoah section in the west-center, and Vicksburg section in the southeast. Ore deposits associated with these older intermediate intrusives include W skarn (USGS Model 14a), Cu skarn (USGS Model 18b), and polymetallic vein and replacements (USGS Model 19a) (Perry and McCarthy, 1977). The most significant production was Pb, Ag, Zn, with minor Cu, Au, and W. The largest producers were the Cedar- Talisman, Harrington-Hickory, and Rebel mines. The primary ore/sulfide minerals reported are galena, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, tetrahedrite, rhodochrosite, vanadinite, wulfenite, and scheelite.
The Moscow section is situated adjacent to the Miocene Moscow granite and south of Elephant Canyon. Mineralization occurs predominantly as replacement deposits and small mantos along northeast- and east-trending veins. Deposits are typically hosted near the top of the east-dipping Devonian carbonate section beneath a shale contact (Perry and McCarthy, 1977). The most significant production was Zn, Pb, Ag, Cu, with minor Au. The largest producers were the Moscow, Red Warrior, and Mowitza mines. Primary ore/sulfide minerals reported are sphalerite, galena, fluorite, chalcopyrite, greenockite, and rhodochrosite (USGS Model 22c).
